FS: New Wurlitzer Style 165 Band Organ Rolls
By Glenn Thomas

Devotees of the late band organ arranger Rich Olson will be thrilled
to know we have released another of his "lost Tune" rolls (6882)
for the Wurlitzer 165 scale.  These are tunes from rolls listed in
the Wurlitzer catalog, but where no known copies exist.  Rich Olson,
a student of Wurlitzer's music, arranged these as they probably
sounded on these lost rolls.

Also, two other new rolls were released:  Roll 6880, arranged by Andy
Park, was commissioned by Andrew Lardieri and has a lot of familiar
tunes from rock's golden era.  Roll 6881, arranged by Mikey Mills,
is a tribute to the circus and contains a great group of marches,
two-steps, and waltzes.

If you have an organ playing Wurlitzer 165 rolls, you will love this
music.  We also still have a few copies of his "lost tunes roll #1
available (6878).  Tune lists, musical samples, and full ordering
information for these rolls and other recent releases are here:
